Behind every BUE is her MUE

18257 

18257 Rupees ? That's close to my first salary.

18257 Kilo meters? That's a lot more than my distance from home. 

Why bother.. With this odd nombre...

18257 days!!! What? It doesn't still make sense to you?

I'm so excited, in 6 days it's going to be 18262 days. If someone gave you so many days what would you do with it?

Here is a soul that gave nearly half of that number of days for me.

One soul that would never smile when I cry and find happiness in my smile. 

The reason I believe in true love.

When I'm experiencing a beautiful thing that I feel so happy about and think 'someone has got to come and experience this with me' there's one person who's just waiting to do it. 

And when I hear her say that her life is meaningful because of me, I realise my life's meaning.

When there's a tornado hitting my town where I live away from home, there would be one hitting my home too.. And then when I'm safe, it dissolves.

Food for life! Food and nourishment in all forms to both my body and soul. A complete meal I will never lack. Thanks to her...

A witness to Life of Bue! 

18257 days

49 years 11 months and 26 days

In these days she's been called a baby and then a mother. 

18262

50 years

Can't believe she is going to be half a century old. 

She is still the pristine bud, always blooming to spread the scent of love. Setting an example for her baby girl (bue) and everyone else. 

5 days to go. And here s Bue cheering her..  * * !!! GO MUE GO MUE !!! * * 

Gimme that Extra Peace

I'm jus' gonna talk about this nice song that I've liked listening to lately...

Gimme that
Gimme that

Well lets listen to it , shall we?
Gimme that
Gimme that

Joy
Extra Peace
Love that will never change

Gimme that
Gimme that

If we humble our selves people,
fall on our face,
and ask God everything in me that's not right
take it away.

See what you've done to me, I'm not the same old me

You took away everythin' and now you're my everything

And He's the God who wipes my tears and provides enough to pay all my bills.. B-)
Gimme that

PS: Pandora Internet Radio App (Available in US and Canada) is a great place to spot new songs :)
Whoopie!! short and sweet.. that's the way posts should be.

In transit

I walked to the bus stop. Took a bus. Got off at the train station. took the train. Transferred to another train got off the second train. Walked a few minutes. Reached where I wanted to.

Now I'm sitting at my desk but I am still in transit. I boarded this vehicle, while I was still being formed in my mother's womb. Little did I know where I was heading. Just hung in there waiting for the next train. Then the time came and I arrived in my mother's arms. Ruled the world for a while, with my own throne tied to the top of the train.

Slowly I saw everyone around me with their own thrones ruling the world. Then realized that I'm one like a 'zillion' others. Got off that train and took a bus. Well now people around started telling me what my destination was for that's where everyone wanted to go. I was like .. ' Okaiee.. if you say so!'. I walked, sat on my mother's lap while my dad was riding the scooter, took an auto rickshaws, buses , cars and  trains.
Oh, my goodness.. how can I forget my bi-cycle <3 <3 :) Ok did I finish mentioning all modes of transport? Oops forgot the boats and air-crafts.. I would love to travel in a ship someday... and someday soon :D (impatient me :P )

I thought I shouldn't mention the times I got lazy and stubborn and when people had to drag me with them, anyway life s not always perfect :D My parents certainly didn't spare the rod and spoil the child (this applies to me and not my brother).

Then time passed and I started to understand why everyone wanted to go there. it is a place where all hope is catered to, some people call it heaven. I call it that way too but what it really means to me is a place in the arms of God.

Now.... I really knew where I wanted to go. I started running, shouting and singing and dancing and laughing all the way. I will run all the way if I have to. I ll take the bus even if it is jam packed and I will take it even if there is not a soul in it. And I decided to plan my trip so that I don't end up in a maze.

Eventually I ended up in a maze. And the visibility is so low, I can only see the present day in front of me. I'm a little confused. But the trip so far has be good, I know something has kept me belted to my seat. and cushioned me during bumps, I've never starved. I'm not scared about getting lost in this maze. Maybe, I will work my way out of it or maybe the maze will miraculously disappear and those golden gates will be in sight, then I will walk at my own pace, with eyes fixed on them, glowing in awe, until I reach the destination.

I cannot clearly see the golden gates, but I picture them in my head. its crazy to travel to some place you haven't seen. But I have seen it. In good things and good people. I will still leap and dance as I go.

I see people around me walking slowly, tired and weary of the journey. They say 'I had to change so many buses, it s so tiring'. 'My next flight is delayed indefinitely'.

Here's one picture if you can't picture it !

Friends, humans, fellow-beings, the tickets are booked. Make sure you are there to board the flight on time. Take the ship though it may take you longer to reach but its what you should do. Drive. Swim, Crawl. Skate. Find yourself on the top of a cliff? Just jump..! (Don't forget the parachute:) Life is not a race, you can't loose to another person. But you can win by helping each other and cheering everyone. And if someone has to take a different route than you, just let them go. Stuck in a maze? Keep Calm and maze on.

Oh! I'm just waiting to feel that relief when I reach the destination. Its gonna be the longest "phewwwwwwww... " I ever said. :D Phew..

PS: I specially pray for all the victims of air, road and sea accidents. Those who lost their life in the Malaysian Airline MH17 aircraft that was shot down on 17th July 2014, lets pray that they reach their new destination.

Oopsie this post got so long :(

Hopiness

Hopiness .. did I spell it wrong?
Nope :) Hope leading to happiness.

One very fine summer day while I was enjoying my strawberries for breakfast, I was put in this state where I find out that I have one less reason to be happy.
But sometimes that makes me feel that I had lost the only reason to be happy.

But if you find a vulnerability , U have to patch it as soon possible otherwise  its not gonna be useful to anyone be it a software or a girl here (wow am I a super dooper computer personnel). So I guess thats what God does from time to time.

Alright where was I, Oh yeah the strawberries...
There you go.. then I told myself you're alive eating yumm strawberries on a bright summer day and u say u have no reason to be happy. Sooo absent minded.

Speaking of being absent minded. I think I have too many things that come to my mind when I think about what makes me the opposite of sad. So I dont know where I started and dont know what I'm typing about now.

When my day gets hard, I ..
Oh oh.. now I remember what I was talking about... hopiness..
Yeah !! when my day gets hard.. I hope it was for the best (whatever happened) and that it could have been worse and hoping this I start hoping for good things that finally makes me happy.

How plain nd boring that sounds.. but why are people sad then?

I guess they dont dare to hope.

I'd bet on hoping to have a juicy mango served to me in Iowa than cry over a lost google glass .. did I say google glass.. I was jus gonna say eye glass :D :D

Fine... u wanna talk about it?... lets talk.. I lost a google glass.. ya... I know what can be worse right? But God loves me and he helped me get out of that messy situation that made me feel like the most irresponsible person in the world. Now am happy!!!

Wow this post is getting really long.. there is gonna be so much to say about hoping. Infact this whole blog is about hopiness. And how I found hopiness in God.

Let me say one more thing and call it a night (thumbs up). When I feared that the sadness will burden me and suck me into a world where tears were all that I could see through my eyes, I was shocked to see that my shoulders felt light. It was like as if someone dropped a large rock from a nebula (the rocks in this nebula i know are very dense and are a million times heavier than any heavy rock one can imagine of.. anyway) on me and I 'm standing here helpless and trembling in fear. Waiting for the worst. One hour passes. One day passes. One week passes .. where did it go?? One month passes.. I see the truth. It Was dropped on me surely.. who bore it? I could never have born it.

Look at me now walking about freely. I look up sometimes still in fear what if it falls. But I dare to put my hope in Christ. He carried a cross for me. This rock should be a little harder but.. He is God!
So I praise Him for giving me peace..   hope and happiness.. what why am I using two words when there can be just one... hopiness!

PS: Because am Happy.. this was how I titled this post. Tot hopiness was better. But lets just sing 'happy' and be happy...

The real PS: Happy people arn't really 'not sad', they must hav found someone to carry their burden. If you haven't found the someone.. go for the Best.. I know you deserve it! If there is a queue just leave it at the foot of the cross.

Saying this makes me happy too!! So allow me.. Praise the Lord!
This post is dedicated to my sweet cousin A on her birthday who brings hopiness into my life.
